Saying Goodbye to Bed Bugs

I received compensation in exchange for sharing this information and my honest opinion.

Did you know that 46% of pest control professionals have encountered infestations of bed bugs in college dormitories? Yuck! I remember how gross the mattress was in my first dorm and honestly back then I had no idea what bed bugs were. I luckily never had an infestation as I think I would have remembered the bites but if I knew back then what I know now, I would have been freaked sleeping on that old, used mattress.

Nowadays there are bed bug cases in dorms, hotels, homes and movie theaters so even though I don’t have to worry about a college dorm anymore, I do have to worry about bed bugs everywhere else. With this age being all about the environment and natural living, a company has come out with a plant based PROOF ® Bed Bug spray that has been tested to have 100% effectiveness in killing adult bed bugs and their eggs. PROOF ® Bed Bug spray is an EPA registered product and with its 100% effectiveness it is definitely a product to have on hand.

Why do bed bugs like dormitories? Bed bugs thrive in confined environments with many people. Without precautions, an infestation has a high risk of happening. Precautions such as fully inspecting suitcases before packing, especially if you were traveling in the summer and inspecting the mattress, headboard and all the furniture with the free Bed Bug Proof app available on iPhone and Android as a method for detection.

Here is a list of 5 FoolPROOF Must haves for dorms to combat bed bugs and enjoy the comforts of home in the dorm room.

1. PROOF bed bug Spray. The last thing you need is to make a trip to the health centre because of bed bug bites. Spray your bed and luggage to make you’re not taking an unwanted guests back home with you. PROOF bed bug Spray works for up to 3 weeks at a time.

2. Shower caddy. Placing everything in one convenient place makes your life easier because getting in the shower only to realize you forgot your shampoo is quite annoying.

3. Highlighters and lots of them. It pays off to highlight important material covered in class, it makes reviewing material during midterms and exams a lot easier.
